SUMMARY:Empowering Course Design with Open Educational Resources (OER) in Learning Management Systems (LMS)
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Shahram Fardadvand. \nThe integration of Open Educational Resources (OER) with Learning Management  Systems (LMS) such as Moodle and Canvas is redefining course design by  enabling educators to create accessible\, flexible\, and dynamic learning  experiences. This session explores how Pressbooks\, an open-source publishing platform\, improves LMS capabilities by simplifying the integration of Open Educational Resources (OER) into well-structured course designs. Pressbooks offers powerful export options for designing courses that combine chapters and materials from diverse OER sources. Educators can remix\, adapt\, and integrate content into unified course modules while retaining the interactivity and accessibility essential for today’s learners. \nThis presentation demonstrates how Pressbooks empowers educators to build flexible courses tailored to their curriculum by embedding resources directly within LMS platforms. Educators can improve teaching by using Pressbooks’ easy integration. This integration helps deliver content better and engages learners more. Examples of successful course designs will show how combining material from different Open Educational Resources (OER) improves teaching and learning. \nParticipants will learn to utilize Pressbooks and the LMS to create interactive\, accessible\, modular courses. This method provides equitable access to quality education and enables educators to tailor learning for diverse audiences.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Using Pressbooks
DESCRIPTION:Pressbooks is an online platform for creating books (and other book-like learning materials)\, including open educational resources (OER). It enables authors and publishers to design\, format\, and share their books in several ways\, including in web-based and digital/ebook formats\, or as print-ready PDFs. Pressbooks is used by independent authors and educational institutions around the world. In this hands-on webinar\, you will learn how to use Pressbooks to create\, build\, and adapt online books and OER. We will cover the basics of structuring your book\, adding and formatting content\, and briefly look at some ways you can enhance your book with embedded media (like images\, video\, and interactive H5P activities). \nIf you do not already have a USask Pressbooks account\, one will be provided for you\, along with a “sandbox” book that you can explore during the session and continue building with later.

SUMMARY:Coalinga College Embraces Academic Freedom With LibreTexts
DESCRIPTION:Coalinga College received the ASCCC 2024-2025 Exemplary Program Award this year for the extraordinary feat of moving from 10% OER adoption rates amongst full-time faculty to 85%. Situated in a town of 17\,000\, Coalinga College serves the town and an area of  surrounding communities over 2000 square miles. \nSome of the Coalinga faculty join us today to talk about their understanding of students’ needs and how OERs have helped them engage their students in the learning process. OERs\, and LibreTexts’ Remixer tool\, have made it simple to include all and only the material they want to present\, in the order that they consider best\, without having to worry about students getting lost. \nFaculty are no longer bound by what a publisher thinks the content presentation should be. And they can ensure they have the materials they need from Day One\, so they no longer need to delay diving into the materials. Faculty time can be spent teaching instead of having to wait for students to have the books delivered. \nFour faulty members will discuss their experiences with OER adoption\, and how they continue to make change for their community.

SUMMARY:Educación basada en IA Generativa: la IAG como Recurso Educativo Abierto
DESCRIPTION:Los Recursos Educativos Abiertos (REA) surgieron como una práctica habitual en la comunidad educativa con el fin de democratizar la educación\, asegurando que cualquier persona tenga acceso a contenidos de calidad sin importar su situación socioeconómica o ubicación geográfica. Este propósito se mantiene vigente gracias a la naturaleza colaborativa de los REA. \nEn este escenario\, la Inteligencia Artificial Generativa (IAG) ha adquirido un papel clave al convertirse en aliada de los docentes para diseñar\, optimizar y personalizar materiales de estudio\, lo que a su vez reduce los costos de producción y potencia la eficacia de la enseñanza. Si consideramos que las configuraciones y desarrollos que realizan los docentes para que la IAG les asista funcionan de manera análoga al software educativo tradicional\, es natural pensar que tales modelos y sistemas también pueden ponerse a disposición de la comunidad bajo licencias abiertas. \nDe esta forma\, la IAG\, puesta a disposición bajo las dinámicas de colaboración y apertura\, profundiza los objetivos esenciales de los REA\, al acercar todavía más la educación de calidad a cualquier persona que la necesite.

SUMMARY:Open Education Week Celebration at Douglas College
DESCRIPTION:This Open Education Week\, the Douglas College Library\, with the generous support of BCcampus\, is hosting an Open Education Week Celebration on Wednesday\, March 5\, 2025! This event will be an opportunity to recognize achievements and to engage with\, learn from and share experiences with those who are interested in reducing course material costs for Douglas students. \nFor more than 10 years\, the faculty at Douglas College have contributed significantly to reducing commercial textbook costs for students. They have saved students over 7 million dollars ($7\,201\,134) by switching from a commercial textbook in their class to an open textbook. \nThis does not include the tremendous cost saving  for students when our faculty chose zero and/or low-cost course materials such as print or digital coursepacks\, freely available web content\, licensed digital materials accessible through the Library collection\, homework systems and more. \nThe Douglas College Library offers a range of services to support the work of faculty to move towards open or zero and/or low-cost materials\, and are excited that this support continues to expand as we develop staff expertise and offer tools such as TalisAspire. \nDouglas College Library is thankful to have received financial support from BCcampus to host this event.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Izradio/la sam multimedijski sadržaj za nastavu i što sada?
DESCRIPTION:Multimedija je dio većine e-kolegija\, omogućava nastavniku i studentima da jasnije i jednostavnije predstave određenu tematiku ili problem\, da se može više puta pogledati i proučiti i da vizualno prikaže ono što sami tekst često ne može dočarati. \nNo kada nastavnik izradi neki video zapis\, animaciju\, podcast ili sliku često ne zna kako ili ne zna dovoljno da na pravilan način postavi taj sadržaj u svoj e-kolegij. \nU ovom webinaru pokazat ćemo kako postaviti izrađeni multimedijski sadržaj kao otvoreni obrazovni sadržaj kako bi se zaštitila autorska prava\, kako ga postaviti u e-kolegij na Merlinu na pravilan način i zašto ga treba postaviti u repozitorij ustanove na sustavu Dabar. \nPredavanje će održati djelatnici Srca\, a svakako ostavljamo prostor i za pitanja sudionika. \nWebinar je namijenjen nastavnicima\, prvenstveno u sustavu visokog obrazovanja i svima zainteresiranima. \nPridružite nam se i provjerite kako pravilno postaviti izrađeni multimedijski sadržaj u e-kolegij. \nPredavači: Domagoj Horvatović\, Dominik Kenđel i Ljiljana Jertec Musap\, Srce \nModeratorica: doc. dr. sc. Sandra Kučina Softić\, Srce \n  \nVrijeme i mjesto održavanja: 6. 3. 2025. od 11 do 12:30 sati\, putem sustava za webinare
